A Si and a Ge diode has identical physical dimensions. The bandgap in Si is larger

A Si and a Ge diode has identical physical dimensions. The bandgap in Si is larger than that in Ge. An identical reverse bias is applied across the diodes

Options

(a) The reverse current in Ge is larger than that in Si
(b) The reverse current in Si is larger than that in Ge
(c) The reverse current is identical in the two diodes
(d) The relative magnitude of the reverse currents cannot be determinated from the given data only
